SMS problems on Cricket - T-Mobile LG V10 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting

I've tried one cricket rep and he couldn't help me. My sms will be "sending" for up to 45 minutes sometimes and might not even be sent at all. Every now and then my messages will go through immediately. Anyone else using the H901 on cricket have any insight on what to do to solve this issue? Data and talk work just fine.

I had to go into the apn and "reset to default" then add a single apn with default cricket settings. It happened to me today suddenly, was working fine yesterday tho....

Thank you so much for the reply. Would you say the issue you were having was pretty similar to what I described? Mine has been doing it for almost a month now (since I activated it, I was being lazy). A cricket rep did the activating for me but I played around a little bit to get MMS working. SMS never got better though.
Any link or anything to the default cricket APN settings you refer to?
Thanks again.

if calls work sms should work, you might have to call a rep and escalate it to someone that understands. As for the MMS, I screwed with the APNs, so deleting and remaking 1 worked.

This worked, thanks a lot. Kinda ridiculous that nobody I saw at cricket could do it correctly.

MMS Problems

I have been having issues with my MMS on my photon since I got it. When someone sends me an MMS it comes from the number 9000 with a link to the sprint pictures website like back in the pcs days. I can send MMS fine and it shows up inline like it should. I have tried everything I can think of to fix it including flashing different roms and the issue persists.
Any ideas?
Possible PRL/Profile update problem or just bad service right now.
It's does that in mine as well as my friends epic thinking sprint has the problem not the phone
Sent from my MB855 using xda premium
My PRL and profile are up to date and it happens no matter what my service is like. My wifes evo shift is fine...
I was having a similar problem where I wasn't receiving mms. I called Sprint and they updated my profile and boom its all back to normal.

My daughter has the Epic it happened to her and me last week.
I cant send mms while roaming. It gives me a error that says I don't have a data connection. But I clearly do because I am posting this message while roaming. I checked all the settings I can find and they all show that roaming data is enabled. Any ideas?

If I understand this correctly, the fix to the following problem is to call Sprint to have them update my profile? I ask this because the last few times I have called Sprint regarding this issue they did not know what I was talking about:
All MMS text messages come from the number 9000, and prompt me to click on a link to view the picture on the Sprint picture mail site, instead of simply viewing the photo in the MMS message itself.
Thanks.

At&t users with galaxy s2 international, mms problem need help please....

I am in the US and have a international galaxy s2 on AT&T...My phone is fully rooted, and I am currently running Batista70 FOXHOUD EDITION 2.1 but i cant seem to get my mms on a consistant basis....I have tried several roms so I am pretty sure it isnt that, I can send mms and have a great 3g signal but most of the time I cant recieve my mms...I can browse the internet and download from the market just fine but there again I cant seem to get the mms to recieve...It seems like on a fresh rom install i get the mms fine but then after a day or so I go back to not being able to recieve one at all...I have tried different apn settings and have made sure I am on the right AT&T data plan (HSDPPB) as mentioned in this thread (http://forum.xda-developers.com/showthread.php?t=1109983) and I still cant get anything consistant on RECIEVING! It has really been agravating and I would love to figure out what I can do to get this working right, I dont know if it is the modem software??? Is it my apn settings??? I have tried different things and still nothing so any help would greatly be apprecitated and I have noticed alot of other people in threads seem to be having this problem so if we can figure it out I would love to make a thread to help out others...thanks in advance...
did you talk to your provider, they may have adjust or refresh your account settings from their end.
That's very weird actually, i used to have issues sending MMS but i never had any issues receiving them.

i have talked to at&t and finally got them to change my account and settings so I know for 100% that I am on the right rate plan and settings......
I to was having problems with MMS on ATT but my problem was sending them not receiving though. After I was sure I had the correct apn setting a customer services specialist had me do this. Try opening your phone dial pad and entering *5005*7672*+13123149810# then the green phone button. This is suppose to reset your sms/mms setting back with the network. Long and behold it fixed my problem of sending mms.
just to double check something - are you leaving your data (edge or 3g) enabled? disabling the phone's data connection will prevent mms from coming through.

[Q] GSM razr not getting MMS

I'm running the .33 ICS leak, with Deutsch Telekom service. For some reason I am unable to receive any MMS. I get the notification with a box to download image. When I click to download the image nothing happens. This is the case with both the stock messenger and handcent.
- Has anyone else experienced this? If so, were you able to fix it and how?
No one else has experienced this?

This is slightly frustrating. This post has been up for over a day, buried to the second page, and not one person has anything to say.
I was under the impression this forum was designed by users, for users, in order for to offer and ask for help from one another. I am not the most knowledgeable when it comes to fixing problems but I at least try to offer some insight.
Can anyone using the XT910 on Deutsch Telekom let me know what their experience has been sending and receiving MMS?

I'd bet that people aren't answering because they're not on the same carrier as you and they don't want to give you half-ass advice. The obvious thing is to make sure your data connection is on. Are you sure you're connected to your carrier's data 3g/4g network? Try disabling wifi and re-downloading the message. As I said I'm not on the same carrier nor the same country as you so it's rather difficult to troubleshoot. It could be a problem with the leak or your carrier

Thank you for your reply, I will gladly take half ass advice, simply because it is better than none. If ten people suggest something I may not have tried, I could at least narrow the issue down.
Although people may not be on the same carrier as me, there are many using the same ICS release.
Are you using the XT910? I'm assuming you are not having any MMS issues. What data settings are you using? What messenger do you use?
I have done all the things you suggested before I posted my question. I have gone in to my APN setting and ensured that Telekom is selected. I have noticed ICS doesn't seem to have as many options for network settings that the past versions had.
All in all I'm looking for any kind of response from anyone using the .33 ICS leak in regards to receiving MMS. Are they able to get the image sent to them or not?

I'm using the XT910 GSM for Rogers (Canadian Carrier). My data is either off or on, got no real settings beyond that. I do know that if I try and retrieve a MMS while on wifi with the data connection off, it won't download the message. I use the stock messenger too (something you may want to try if you're using a 3rd party messaging app). I've never messed around with any of the APN settings/other network settings.
Sent a MMS this morning no problem this morning and received one this afternoon no problem. Honestly, not sure what the problem could be

I'm also using the. 33 leak.
Have you checked the individual options in the apn to make sure they are correct?
In a previous leak it said i was on T-Mobile but i use simple mobile, so maybe it has something wrong in the mms port or proxy? (The long one)
Have you tried sending an mms to see if it actually gets sent?
I set up the mms port/proxy wrong i had mms problems

So, I started messing around with the Tmobile APN settings and messed up my data. Then I reset APN to default and noticed the settings were different than before I started messing. Now it seems to be working!

[Q] CM10 no MMS after flash

I just installed Cyanogenmod 10 on my Spring Motorola Photon 4G, and after I find that I have no MMS which after research seems to be very common. I'm seeing that most people use go sms pro as a work around to this. I installed it and still no MMS. I also see that people did editing to some of the options under the advanced menu which involves changing the I want to say the address of what MMS uses to send which also look to be carrier specific. Since I don't know what these are called I've found it difficult to find. If anyone could offer some assistance in me getting my MMS working again that'd be great.

All you need to do is add the APN's for your carrier.

I did find the APN and got picture messaging, both send and receive working, but what's strange is that multi message texts wont send.

add the APN's if you haven't.
What exactly are the Sprint APN's?
I've tried both of these, none work.

EDIT: tried the SIII method, then and added the APN's manually. Then the new version came out, so I reflashed and did a factory reset. That seemed to do the trick!

Using ATT sim shows incoming numbers as internation

Hello, I've got a quick question to ask on behalf of a friend. I recently setup her verizon note 2 for ATT service via NET10 but the problem is when I call her from lets say my phone number (111)111-1111 it comes in as +11 1 111 11 11.
I've doubled checked the assisted dialing settings and their setup as they should, I've even tried the phone.apk from the ATT NOTE 2, along with telephony.apk files... all with no result. If anyone knows a solution please do feel free to post it as I'm not very smart with this type of issues when it comes to android but I'm starting to suspect its because this phone with a sim card isn't meant to be used locally but over seas.

I have the same setup and same problem. I've looked for 3 months and couldn't find a fix. And as of 2 days ago, i'm not longer able to recieve mms. I can send just fine but incoming keeps failing to download. I've tried several apn's and nothing seems to work. it's strange because it's been working fine past few months. Other than that, Net10 is great on this phone as long as you don't have to call CS for anything.

Also having this problem only if I return a call from a previous incoming call it fails because of the "+" prefix.

mine does the sane thing. so I have to either go into contacts or manually put the number. checked all my settings to make sure international calling wasn't causing the problem. I have no idea what's causing this.
I did find an apn that fixed my mms issue though.

You can solve the MMS issue by getting another messaging APP like TEXTRA and adding the MMS APN setting in it. It will work fine after that.
